Hi @jmalinens,

thanks for reporting. Isn't this a Docker Snap? Looks like it's not being maintained anymore: https://github.com/docker-archive/docker-snap/blob/master/README.md

Hey @jmalinens, we added missing folders, can you check if the problem still exists?

[jmalinens]

@akondas thanks. now it's working

I also upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04. Now docker-compose up works

Hey @mostafasoufi, it looks like you are running this command using sudo. You probably see this warning too.

WARNING: The PWD variable is not set. Defaulting to a blank string.

There are two possible solutions here:

1. Correct docker configuration with Post-installation steps for Linux
2. Run docker-compose with PWD env create manually:

sudo PWD=/path/to/repman docker-compose up -d

Let me know if it helped. 😉
